Presented is an attractive grouping of the important 1960 Topps Baseball issue, with an impressive lineup of Hall of Famers that includes some of the key cards from the set, including the Yastrzemski (3) and McCovey Rookie cards, plus Clemente, Mays, Koufax and more than three dozen other Hall of Famers. The three Yastrzemski Rookies are a PSA 4 and a pair of PSA 3s.
